We just purchased a used boat from The Ships Chandler in Destin, FL. Jake Miller proved to be exceptionally knowledgeable, helpful, and capable. We could not have asked for a better sales and service experience.

Just purchased a nice Robalo from Jason and his team at Ships Chandler Freeport. Thank you so much for the great experience and the time spent showing me the boat and options.

Great prices and honest people. They went above and beyond to make sure I left with the boat I wanted.
